The best romantic ever.

Hi all.

So I’m sort of a sucker for romance. Okay, okay, I’m a complete and total hopeless romantic. And I’ve sort of been in a funny mood recently. You know the mood where you trust that God has a wonderful love story to write for you, but you wonder if He's even picked up the pen to write it.

Anyway, I have a confession. Sometimes, I have really profound thoughts (stop laughing, I really do, not very often, ha ha, but it happens.) And sometimes I learn something new. I get super stoked about it and then want so badly for someone to share in the excitement I’m experiencing. So basically, I have many wonderful moments that I feel I experience all by myself and that no one will ever be able to "re-capture" it with me, at least not exactly.

The other day I found myself asking, "God, who's going to know all these amazing thoughts I have. (Am I struggling with pride here? ha ha) God who's going to know exactly what I’m experiencing right now? And who's going to...? And this? And...and?" I found myself wondering who was going to know me. All of me. And I mean really know me. Then in my whiniest, most pathetic voice, with a hint of cry, I said, "And God” - in between sobs - “Who's going to bring me flow---errs?"

In my little heart I heard, "Kaylee, I bring you flowers every spring. More flowers than you could ever imagine. And Kaylee Hendrickson, I know your every thought. You don't even have to re-tell the amazing moment so I can sort of relate. I was actually right there with you through that moment. I completely relate and know your story. I know every fiber of your being and I adore who I made you to be."

This thought somehow allows me to let out a big sigh of relief, live for today, and wait patiently for all that He has in store.

Cheering you on in whatever relational status you find yourself in.

May each one of you know that you are completely and totally romantically involved with Christ, and may you see His signs of affection for you that are all over the place. For example…flowers.
